Ph.D. position in Scene Interpretation
at the Cognitive Systems Laboratory, Department of Informatics, University of Hamburg
Applications are requested for a research position in the DFG-funded project "Probabilistic Preference Measures for Knowledge-based Scene Interpretation", duration 1/10/07 - 30/9/10.

The Cognitive Systems Laboratory at the University of Hamburg has a long-standing record of leading-edge research in Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence. One of our focus areas is scene interpretation and the connection of vision processes with common-sense knowledge. Here we look for a researcher who has the background and caliber to investigate principled approaches for combining logic-based and probabilistic models for scene interpretation.

Work will be carried out in close cooperation with other members of the team at the Cognitive Systems Laboratory and with the Software Systems group at Hamburg University of Technology headed by Prof. Ralf Moeller.

Hamburg is one of the most beautiful towns in Germany which offers all attractions of a metropolitan city while retaining a natural and lovely environment. 

Applicants must have an above-average university degree in Computer Science and competence both in Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence. Please send applications to
